Safety record

Accident & incident history

1998-08-07 Accident · Marathon, FL Damage: Substantial Serious injury NTSB · ATL98LA105
Reported aircraft: Mooney M20A — a different aircraft that carried the N8385E registration before this airframe.
Probable cause: The inadequate inspection of the fuel pump during the last engine overhaul, that subsequently resulted in a worn diaphragm, fuel venting overboard, and loss of engine power from fuel exhaustion during a critical phase of flight.
